And MAGA, on the other hand, makes people happy.

I’m not much of a spontaneous laugher, but the explosion of videos with people doing the “Trump Dance” just cracks me up. When President Trump started showing off a few of his signature moves during the 2020 campaign, I thought the whimsical addition to his rallies provided a bit of levity to an otherwise stressful time, during which COVID dominated the headlines. Then I noticed that college-aged social media users had adapted Trump’s routine into a game similar to Dance Dance Revolution. Trending videos on YouTube and TikTok highlighted young people trying to replicate his movements with a split screen showing Trump dancing on one side and competitive mimics on the other. The “Trump Dance” became a cultural phenomenon.

The late, great Andrew Breitbart was keen on reminding conservatives that politics is downstream from culture. It is only right, then, that his eponymous publication featured a story a few days ago that captured how popular the “Trump Dance” has become. The Breitbart article includes videos of Argentinian president Javier Milei breaking out to the “Trump Dance” with supporters, San Francisco 49ers star Nick Bosa celebrating with his teammates on the field, and numerous young men and women enjoying the Donald Trump dance craze. If you look at any social media platform, you can find videos of people all over the world doing the “Trump Dance” at parties, in bars, at sporting events, and near historical landmarks. The funny little dance is a global sensation.

Now, this might seem silly to a lot of people. We have so many serious problems today, and Americans struggling to make ends meet don’t have time for an extra helping of nonsense.

Allow me to suggest, however, that the widespread enthusiasm for the “Trump Dance” is a healthy sign for a society that has been deprived of authentic joy for far too long.

In reality, conservatives of all skin colors had hoped that Obama’s presidency would usher in a new era of American unity.

When Obama was 1st elected I wasn't really sad as I had no use for that idiot McCain. And I rationalized it by saying that we can now get this racial crap behind us as the USA now had a black president.

Unfortunately Rush was right when he said the Dems would exacerbate racism using Obama.

“ideos of Argentinian president Javier Milei breaking out to the ‘Trump Dance’”

When he be-bopped into the banquet room, I couldn’t stop laughing.

No, you were just plan stupid and myopic. Not really something you should post about or be proud of. Virtue signal elsewhere..

It's victory dance.

A gesture or attribute popping up like that is a sign of respect and popularity. With all that Trump has been through, he surely deserves it.
